Star Wars Episode I Jedi Power Battles review

System: Switch
Release date: January 23, 2025
Developer: Aspyr
Publisher: Aspyr

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, many of the long-standing franchises that now dominate the industry were either still in their infancy, or hadn’t even been conceived yet. Consequently, there was significantly less choice for the young gamer when compared to modern times. But one thing we did not suffer from a lack of, and which filled that empty void, was movie tie-ins. With the release of The Phantom Menace, there were few franchises as ripe for exploitation on this front as Star Wars, and over the course of the mid-to-late-2000s we were bombarded with video game adaptations and spin-offs of the still highly divisive prequel trilogy. Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles is an unfortunate example of the less civilized part of that age.

Laika Aged Through Blood trailer

Laika: Aged Through Blood finally arrived on Nintendo Switch this week, and to promote the launch, a new launch trailer has come in. The “motorvania” was previously delayed significantly on the console, but now fans can pick it up as a digital download.

All of the important details can be found in the following overview:

Feardemic and Steelkrill Studio today announced that The Backrooms 1998 is about to enter its 1.0 release, and it’s coming to various consoles such as Nintendo Switch. Currently we do not have a release window.

The title is a psychological survival horror game that tells the story of a young teen after accidentally falling into the depths of The Backrooms in 1998. For the full release, the team has improved the visuals, updated the jumpscares, and more. Note that the experience is not for the faint of heart.
